Xoxoday administers all API access centrally through its technical support team, enforcing OAuth 2.0 and JWT-based authentication, Role-Based Access Control (RBAC), and TLS 1.2+ encryption in compliance with ISO/IEC 27001:2022 and SOC 2 Type II standards.
Centralized API Access Administration
Xoxoday manages API access provisioning, monitoring, and revocation exclusively through its dedicated technical support team. This centralized model ensures no API credentials are self-provisioned, reducing the risk of unauthorized access and guaranteeing that every integration is vetted before going live. Organizations connecting Xoxoday to enterprise HR systems such as Workday, SAP SuccessFactors, or Darwinbox benefit from this controlled approach, which maintains a clear audit trail of all provisioned credentials. When an integration needs to be decommissioned — for example, when a vendor relationship ends or an employee with API access departs — the technical support team handles revocation promptly, preventing stale credentials from becoming a security liability.Authentication and Authorization Protocols
Xoxoday uses OAuth 2.0 as its primary protocol for secure, delegated API access. OAuth 2.0 allows third-party applications to act on behalf of a user or service without exposing credentials directly, making it the industry standard for modern API security. Alongside OAuth 2.0, Xoxoday issues JSON Web Tokens (JWTs) for token-based authentication, enabling stateless and verifiable session handling across distributed services. For access control, Xoxoday enforces Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) with fine-grained permissions. An IT administrator integrating Xoxoday with Slack or Microsoft Teams, for instance, can be granted scoped access limited to only the resources relevant to that specific integration — without exposing the broader API surface to unnecessary risk.Data Security in Transit and at Scale
All API communications on Xoxoday are encrypted using TLS 1.2 or higher, protecting data in transit regardless of where the integration is hosted. Xoxoday also applies API rate limiting to guard against abuse, throttling excessive request volumes that could indicate credential misuse or automated attacks. Where required, Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) adds an additional verification layer before granting access to sensitive API operations. This is particularly relevant for integrations that write data back to core systems, such as payroll connectors or HRIS platforms like Darwinbox.Compliance Alignment
Xoxoday’s API security controls meet enterprise compliance requirements, aligning with ISO/IEC 27001:2022 information security management standards and independently verified through SOC 2 Type II audits. These certifications mean enterprise buyers can trust that Xoxoday’s access management practices are not just stated policy commitments — they are regularly tested and validated by third-party auditors. For organizations in regulated industries or running vendor security assessments, Xoxoday’s compliance posture simplifies the approval process and reduces the burden on internal security and procurement teams.
